What should people with uterine fibroids do exactly?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. What exactly should I do if I have uterine fibroids?

Doctor's answer:

The recurrence of uterine fibroids is related to hormonal imbalance. When the tumor is less than 5 cm, medication can be used to control the growth of the fibroid. If the size is below 5 cm, doctors may recommend surgical treatment. Generally, a single fibroid can be removed through surgery. If there are multiple fibroids and the patient has not yet entered menopause, doctors may suggest removing the uterus to prevent the fibroids from growing back. For patients with uterine fibroids, in addition to immediate treatment, it is also important to pay attention to self-care, such as maintaining cleanliness, avoiding sexual activity, and eating fewer spicy and irritating foods. Finally, women patients are advised to have regular follow-up examinations!
